The BBC is consistently at or near the top of the "world's most trusted news sources"[0]. It's also one of the oldest news sources.
"August BBC" therefore makes perfect sense and is a defensible claim.

No doubt the BBC has its flaws, but you take allies where you can find them. If you care about the truth, it’s important to call out government censorship. The foreign press is more likely to reveal unpleasant truths.
